Speechless - 22 killed at Virginia Tech

[Jp!]

I'll just ask how does society say these people were supposed to defend themselves?

It's sad that people die from non-provoked attacks. Be it 20+ or just one. The reality is, it can happen, anywhere and everywhere.

Prayers are with the survivors.

Who's reporting 32?

The city of Philadelphia has had 111 homicides this year, so far. (as of a couple days ago)
Not as concentrated, or as focused on one age group, but troubling nonetheless.

Imagine living in Iraq, where a daily body count like this is about average. Day in, day out, 24/7/365.

Can't really process this kind of thing. Out of my grasp.

Student on TV says he spoke with another student who was in a classroom and was told everyone in the room was shot but him because he stayed still. Un-fscking believable. Dude was supposedly going down the hall, room by room, shooting into each.
